Produced from traditional Warré hives using minimally invasive beekeeping methods, this seasonal polyflora honey is cold pressed directly from virgin comb to preserve its natural flavour, texture and nutritional integrity. Rather than being heavily filtered or homogenised, it retains naturally occurring pollen, bee bread and propolis, remaining as close as possible to the way it exists inside the hive.
Each harvest reflects the changing flora available to the bees, producing a honey with remarkable depth and complexity. No two batches are exactly alike, making every jar a genuine expression of the season.
Harvest Profile
The current 2026 harvest presents as a soft set honey with a smooth, finely crystallised texture and a light amber to golden colour. On the palate it offers delicate floral aromatics followed by layered wildflower complexity and a long, balanced finish.
Activity Rating: TA 21+ (equivalent to approximately UMF 21+ / MGO 899+)
Why Warré Hives?
This honey is produced using traditional Warré hives, a natural beekeeping system that allows bees to build their own comb with minimal intervention. Cold pressing the honey directly from virgin comb helps preserve naturally occurring:
• Bee bread (beneficial fermented pollen)
• Propolis
• Naturally occurring pollen
• Native enzymes and aromatic compounds
These components contribute to the honey's distinctive flavour, texture and naturally occurring antioxidant activity.
Natural Characteristics
As a genuinely raw, cold pressed honey, natural variation is expected and celebrated.
Each seasonal harvest may differ slightly in colour, aroma, floral composition and texture. Fine crystallisation, a cloudy appearance and a smooth, soft set consistency are all natural characteristics of minimally processed honey and are not signs of spoilage.

Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
For the best flavour and texture, store between
15°C and 25°C.
Natural crystallisation will occur over time and reflects the minimally processed nature of the honey.
Allergy Information
This raw honey naturally contains pollen and may also contain bee bread and propolis. While uncommon, these naturally occurring components may trigger allergic reactions in individuals sensitive to pollen or bee products.
About Malfroy's Gold
Malfroy's Gold is an Australian family owned beekeeping operation based in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales. Working with traditional Warré hives and minimally invasive beekeeping practices, they produce small batch honeys that prioritise natural hive health and minimal processing over standardised commercial production.
Rather than heating, filtering or homogenising every harvest to achieve uniformity, Malfroy's Gold allows each seasonal release to retain its own unique character, preserving the subtle differences in flavour, aroma and texture that come from the bees' changing forage throughout the year.
